For the first time in a long time, I finally feel like I can breathe.

These past few months have been full of decisions, uncertainty, packing boxes, saying difficult goodbyes, and hoping that this move would be the fresh start our little family needed. My husband and I have been a team through every step of this journey. When one of us felt overwhelmed, the other kept going.

Now we’re here. Watching the sunrise from our new home with a warm cup of coffee in my hands, I’m feeling incredibly grateful.

I want to give myself permission to simply be present. To unpack. To make this house our home. To help my little one settle into her new adventure. To find inspiration again without rushing.

I’ll be back towards the end of September, ready for my favourite season of all : 🍁 Autumn 🍂

Sometimes, creating beautiful things begins with living beautiful moments first.

Thank you 🤍

I am writing this while waiting for a drop-in session following an autism diagnosis, while also learning how to cope with and understand my own neurodiversity.

And perhaps that explains this decision better than anything else.

I have decided to close this chapter of my business.

Not pause it with a neat little plan, not rebrand it for the 47th time, and not pretend I already know what comes next. This time, I am simply allowing myself to stop, breathe and not have all the answers.

Living with neurodiversity in my own mind and within our family, is a lot to hold. It can be beautiful, creative and full of ideas… but it can also feel like having 38 browser tabs open, music playing from somewhere, and absolutely no idea which tab is making the noise.

Right now I want life to feel simpler, I need that!

I want to give myself the space to understand what I genuinely want to create and what I truly want to offer from my mind, my heart and my own two hands. Not because I feel I should keep going, but because one day it may feel right again.

Perhaps this business will return in another form. Perhaps it will have a new name, a clearer purpose or a completely different story. Or perhaps it will simply remain a beautiful chapter that taught me more than I ever expected.

Right now, I do not know, and surprisingly, I am learning to be okay with that. Slightly uncomfortable, naturally… because my brain would very much prefer a complete five-year plan, colour-coded and laminated.

It is not the end, it is me choosing to listen to myself, protect my energy and leave room for whatever comes next.

Thank you for staying with me through every idea, every change of direction and every chapter! Your support has meant more than you will ever know. 🤍

Some chapters are not easy to close… even when you know something beautiful is waiting ahead. 🌿🤍

Sara’s Garden Studio started here in Thurrock, in between family life, busy days, late nights, hopes, ideas, and many little moments of courage. And now, our family is getting ready for a new chapter. We are moving from Thurrock, and with that, Sara’s Garden Studio will also be taking a little pause while we pack, move, settle, and create a new space for the studio to grow again.

So this is a gentle reminder that if you would like to place an order before we leave, orders will be open until 15th July.

The last day for local delivery or collection will be 20th July.

Thank you, Thurrock, for being part of the beginning ❤️!

A little piece of summer, made by hand… 🌸🍋 like a sunny morning, a garden table, and a quiet moment of joy.

It feels feminine, warm and cheerful, the kind of gift that brings a smile before a single word is even said 💛.

For birthdays, special moments, or simply for someone who deserves a little sunshine in their day.

Handmade with love,
Sara’s Garden Studio 🤍

Summer has arrived at Sara’s Garden Studio 🍋🌿

Introducing my Summer Collection, a little piece of sunshine, poured by hand.

Inspired by warm days, garden moments, fresh lemons, green leaves and slow summer evenings, this collection was created to bring brightness, calm and joy into your home.

The collection includes the Summer Garden Candle in a handmade jesmonite lemon pot, Lemon Garden, lemon-inspired wax melts, and delicate wax sachets.

The fragrances were chosen to bring that summer feeling into your home, from bright lemon and grapefruit, to calming lemon & lavender, citronella & jasmine, lemon & mint, green tea & cactus flower, and sea salt mist & driftwood.

This little summer garden is now ready to leave my hands and bring sunshine into your homes 🍋🤍

Her Story: First Chapter

For the woman
who has smiled through heavy days,
who has carried storms in silence,
and still found a way to keep going.

For the woman
who has searched for joy
in the smallest moments,
and learned that even soft light
can warm a tired heart.

For the woman
who has had to be strong
when she felt anything but,
who held herself together
when no one else could see
how much it took.

For the woman
who is still becoming,
still healing,
still learning how to bloom
in her own time,
in her own beautiful way.

This collection is for her.
For you.
For me.
For every story carried quietly behind a smile.

JOY
for the moments that bring light.

STRENGTH
for the power we carry within.

BLOOM
for the season when we rise again.

Today, I am so proud to share
Her Story: First Chapter,
a collection created with heart,
for the many chapters of womanhood.

With love,
Sara’s Garden Studio ❤️

A little personal update 🤍

Some important changes are coming for our family, and because of this, Sara’s Garden Studio will be paused from 20th July until the beginning of September.

During this time, we will be relocating, settling into a new chapter, and moving the studio into its new home.

I just want to say thank you from my heart to everyone who has supported me until now, from Thurrock area and beyond. Every order, kind message, share, recommendation and visit has meant so much to me.

From autumn, Sara’s Garden Studio will return with a new studio space and a website, making it easier to order candles, wax melts and gift boxes online from everywhere.

And because this year looks a little different for us, I can also share that my only Christmas market for 2026 will be the Essex Christmas County Craft Show in November. It will be a very special one for me, and I would love to see some familiar faces there.

I still take orders until beginning of July for the summer collection which will launch next week, and teacher gifts 🥰

Last delivery day before the pause is 19th of July x

It’s a pause for now, but also the beginning of something new 🤍

With love,
Sara’s Garden Studio

A new chapter is slowly unfolding…

I have been creating quietly, following feelings more than plans, and letting each candle find its own story.

On 16th June, two new collections will be revealed at Sara’s Garden Studio:

Her Story: First Chapter
and
The Summer Collection

Her Story: First Chapter is the collection that feels closest to my heart.
It was created for the woman who is still becoming… the one who has grown through change, found light in small moments, and carried strength even when nobody could see it.

This collection will be available all year round, made to order, because these emotions are not seasonal. They stay with us.

Alongside it, I will be launching the Summer Collection, a limited edition summer collection inspired by warm light, citrus air, garden evenings and the kind of peace that only summer can bring.

This one will only be here for a short time.

Two collections.
Two stories.
One launch filled with meaning, softness and a little mystery.

Launching 16th June 💛

🍋☀️ “Do more of what makes you happy.”

Sometimes life gently reminds us that happiness isn’t found in the big things, but in the quiet moments: a warm summer evening, the scent of fresh lemons, a flickering candle, a new beginning, or simply taking time to enjoy the present.

This summer, I’m choosing to embrace change, slow down when needed, and focus on the things that bring joy, creativity, and peace. That inspiration is reflected in my upcoming collection of summer wax melts and in a special Jesmonite creation, Citrus Serenity🍋✨

What is one thing you’ll be doing more of this summer?
